Meet Kevin:
This is Kevin Cozens (KrazyKev in our forums). In this photo, he is wearing a pair of Pleaser XTC 826 platform heels:
Why?
In his own words:
HI my name is Kevin AKA. KRAZY KEV. I thought I would let you all know a little about me and my liking for high heels. First let me put you straight on a few things.
1.) Yes, im a bit krazy
2.) Yes I have walked in public wearing womens high heels.
3.) No I dont have a fetish for high heels unless worn by a sexy woman.The reason I started to wear high heels is for a very good one. I was looking for a way to raise money for a UK charity called HELP FOR HEROES. I was after a way to emulate pain suffered by soldiers who have been injured while serving in Iraq and Afganistan. In the end I had the bright idea of a long walk but wearing very high heeled womens shoes. On 22 Aug 2009 my day had finally come. I was going to be wearing womens shoes in public for the very first time. I had never worn high heels in my life and I was about to attempt to walk a very long 5 miles in a pair of PLEASER XTC 826. The heels were 7.5” with a 4” platform. I had already made the event known to the public and i had already raised a lot of money. I now ask myself could I go the distance without doing myself harm. After 3.5hrs I finally arrived at my destination. I have to admit that a man wearing huge womens heels are a sure fire way of getting attention. Before the walk I promised my wife that if I complete the walk that I would DOUBLE the distance to raise money for her chosen charity which is Cancer Reasearch UK.
According to his original website, £723.00 was raised toward his chosen charity.
Now he needs our help to determine which shoes he should wear when keeping that promise to his wife – and perform a second, much longer, charity walk (tentatively set for Spring 2010).
Here are the shoes that Kevin is considering for this fund-raising event:

Now, all we need from you, dear readers, is your vote.
Poll will remain open for at least 2 months. Let’s see how many people we can get to help out on this!
